Preview:

Description:

mosaicLayout is a JavaScript library for rendering a responsive, mobile-friendly, mosaic tiling layout (also called Masonry Layout) on the page.

How to use it:

1. Import the stylesheet mosaic-styles.css and JavaScript lazy-load-mosaic-tile-script.js into the document.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="mosaic-styles.css" />
<script src="lazy-load-mosaic-tile-script.js"></script>

2. Create a container element named masonryContainer.

<div id="masonryContainer">
</div>

3. Define an array of images to be showcased in the mosaic layout.

myImages = [
  "1.png", 
  "2.jpg",
  "3.webp",
  // ...
]

4. Create a new instance of the mosaic layout.

var mosaic = new mosaicLayout({
    imagesArray: myImages
});

5. Initialize the mosaic layout and done.

mosaic.initiate();

6. Override the default CSS classnames.

var mosaic = new mosaicLayout({
    imagesArray: myImages,
    // container CSS
    container: "masonryContainer",
    // column CSS
    masonryColumn: "masonryColumn",
    // CSS class of image container
    masonryImgDiv: "masonryImgDiv",
    // CSS class of each image
    masonryImg: "masonryImg",
});

7. Determine how many columns to show on desktop & mobile.

var mosaic = new mosaicLayout({
    imagesArray: myImages,
    columns: "6",
    mobileColumns: "3",
    smallCutoff: 800 // breakpoint
});

8. Enable image lazy loading. Default: false.

var mosaic = new mosaicLayout({
    imagesArray: myImages,
    lazyLoading: false,
    lazyLoadingClass: 'lazy',
});
